Repeal the Raise WI Senators Gave Themselves

Wisconsin State Senate

According to Governor Scott Walker, Wisconsin is broke, but apparently not broke enough for the Wisconsin State Senate to pass a posh 31% increase in their daily per diem spending allocation.

The people of Wisconsin are hurting, yet our state senators are helping themselves to lavish per diem increases. This same senate has axed over a billion dollars from public schools, cut food stamps and refused to raise the minimum wage from $7.25, but somehow they found money for raises? Not on our watch! This raise needs to be repealed immediately. We want those same dollars invested in Wisconsin families, not Wisconsin Senators.

I am outraged that you passed a lavish 31% per diem increase for yourselves, yet when the needs of Wisconsin families are before you taxpayers are told the state is broke? I demand you immediately work to repeal this raise you passed for yourselves without any public notice and instead direct those dollars to the state's neediest residents.
